“Neathwood Cottage is delightful, small but not cramped, very cosy and with all the amenities you could wish.”
We had a warm welcome from the owners, who left us alone but made it very clear that if there was anything we needed - from tourist information to a problem with the cottage - they were always happy to help. we didn't enjoy the best weather but as the cottage was so warm and comfortable we were happy to spend time there. We were able to take our dog, a lively Labrador, and he had a marvellous time, the cottage, which is an annexe of the main cottage, has lovely gardens and a fenced paddock ...

We were able to take our dog, a lively Labrador, and he had a marvellous time, the cottage, which is an annexe of the main cottage, has lovely gardens and a fenced paddock which gave the dog (and my husband) great opportunities to have fun and exercise! Beautiful, peaceful location but in easy reach of anything you might want to visit. Westonbirt Arboretum was magnificent with all the autumn colours. Neathwood cottage is highly recommended.

Vincent “BEAUTIFUL LOCATION WITH LOVELY HOSTS”
- Vincent, September 2020 Julie “Lovely cottage in a stunning location.”
Hosts were very kind and made us welcome, whilst making sure we had our own space throughout our stay. Woke each morning to the gentle sound of cows in the fields across from the cottage. So little traffic, meant our stay was really peaceful. Absolutely stunning garden, perfect for sunny days. Cottage was really cosy, especially on evenings when the weather wasn’t great. I would definitely recommend this as a great location to explore the Cotswolds.
- Julie, August 2020 Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay at Neathwood Cottage. Its lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your stay in the relaxing settings. It's a great base to explore the Cotswolds. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner
Gareth “Great little cottage, tucked away in a rural setting with great walks on the doorstep.”
Comfortable and cosy, everything needed for a fabulous stay to explore the area. Lovely garden to sit out in and we brought the dog, so he loved the space to run around.
- Gareth, August 2020 Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay at Neathwood Cottage. It's always lovely to hear how much our guests have enjoyed staying. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner
Lynda “The owner of the cottage was very friendly and although we didn’t see each other much, she was on hand if we had a problem.”
Lovely area so quiet and peaceful.
- Lynda, July 2020 Anne “Lovely comfortable,homely cottage,a real rural retreat set in beautiful countryside,with a pleasant secluded garden.”
The owners were very pleasant and helpful,but unobtrusive.
- Anne, October 2019 Kathryn “A very cosy and comfortable, well-equipped cottage in a lovely quiet area.”
Ideal for dog walking. Easy access to Westonbirt Arboretum and central to other visitor locations.
- Kathryn, September 2019 Samantha “If you are looking for somewhere to restore your soul this place is it!”
We wanted to really get away from it all and the cottage delivered. Our dog absolutely loved the gardens, there was cake and wine on arrival and it was very cosy. Plenty of walks and pubs and the owners were delightful people. For those of you who are reliant on your phone/social media don't bother as the signal is non existent but if like us you want to leave that behind and concentrate on what's around you then you won't be disappointed.
- Samantha, August 2019 Adrian “Fantastic cottage for a quite getaway with a wonderful owner/host”
- Adrian, August 2019 Jennifer “We’re just back from a lovely stay at Neathwood cottage.”
For a couple in their thirties who were looking to enjoy a bit of walking as well as peace and quiet from busy jobs this place was ideal. The cottage was spotless and had everything you would need for a short stay. The owner, Marion, was lovely and had even made sure there was milk, tea and cake for us arriving -much appreciated after a long drive! Our dog got the benefit of being right next to the Cotswolds way and the Monarch way. There are some brilliant walks from the cottage to the neighbouring towns Hawkesbury and Wotton Under Edge. The cottage itself had an abundance of beautiful garden space although it might be helpful to note (if you have an excitable spaniel like us!) that it wasn’t fully enclosed. Hillesley itself had a great pub although as it’s a small village it didn’t have a shop. This wasn’t an issue as Wotton had plenty and was only a 5 -10 minute drive away. Overall we had an excellent stay and would recommend highly.
- Jennifer, August 2019 Lynda “Dear little cottage in a very quiet area.”
We only stayed for a weekend, but felt it met out needs so much we want to go again and spend a week to do more exploring.
- Lynda, July 2019 Jan “The cottage as listed on your website has a wood burning stove.”
It does not! It is an electric fire. There were long hairs in the bedroom on the dressing table and dust on surfaces. Skirtings were dirty. When the lounge lights were switched on cobwebs could be seen strung from these to the wall, also in quite a few other places including the kitchen area. Other than that the cottage is beautifully situated. The nearest shop is not as advertised but 3 miles away. Well equipped certainly but maybe excessive in the crockery department where there were at least 30 cups/mugs. A bit excessive for a cottage for 2, and also taking up useful storage space. The area is lovely and the owners friendly, and we appreciated the little extras they put in that made us feel at home and welcome.
- Jan, June 2019 Chris “The property was really comfortable but perhaps a little dated with some things due for an update and some redecoration.”
The wifi was sadly intermittent at best. Lots of wildlife and privacy from the world was much appreciated.
- Chris, April 2019 Deborah “Lovely well equipped cottage in a beautiful location.”
Ideal for quiet walks, or visits to nearby towns and cities. The owners, indeed everyone we spoke to in the area, are very friendly and helpful, and the local pub in Hillesley is within walking distance and perfect for a pint or a bite to eat. My only comment on the cottage itself would be that the bathroom is quite tight for the larger person, but manageable none the less. Would highly reccommend.
- Deborah, April 2019 Georgina “We had such a great time in the cotswolds.”
the cottage and the surrounding area was lovely. Welcomed to the cottage by the owners who had also decorated the cottage all Christmasy and had some homemade cheesecake in the fridge as well as a nice chilled bottle of prosecco. A lovely way to spend the festive season.
- Georgina, December 2018 Paul “Cottage is just 100 yards from Cotswold Way footpath.”
Friendly, welcoming owner who provided fresh flowers, fruit, bottle of wine and biscuits on arrival. All very cosy and clean. The local pub in Hillesley (1 mile away) owned by a consortium of villagers, a CAMRA pub of the year, serves over half a dozen real ales, real local cider and excellent pies. Loved hearing the owls at night. Pets welcome.
- Paul, October 2018 Jasper “The only slight disappointment was the fact that it stated that there was a log burner or open fire, but it’s actually electric.”
Other than that it was perfect.
- Jasper, October 2018 Bevan “Well anointed pleasantly furnished good kitchen equipment private section of garden summerhouse”
- Bevan, Knott “Cottage was very clean, comfortable and short distance to local amenities.”
The attention to detail by the owners was outstanding. The garden was an absolute delight
- Knott, Mr & Mrs Davies “Our holiday at Neathwood Cottage was lovely.”
The owners' welcome and thoughtfulness made this one of the nicest places we have stayed at. The cottage was clean and comfortable; no detail was overlooked. We loved the quiet and peaceful location too.
- Mr & Mrs Davies, Guest's review on TripAdvisor “Beautifully presented and peaceful cottage in the countryside.”
The garden was beautiful to sit in and the woodpecker on the bird feeder was wonderful to watch.
- Guest's review on TripAdvisor, Nigel & Wendy “Lovely quiet cottage - perfect to unwind, for visits to Bath and local villages - slept like a log.”
Charlie the dog loved the walks and running in the paddock.
- Nigel & Wendy, Mrs C “Once again we have had a truly lovely stay.”
It is so lovely to find a place away from the hustle and bustle of life. Your cottage is truly enchanting and we hope to return to enjoy the horse trials at Badmington for many years to come.
- Mrs C, Allan & July “We were looking for a relaxing, peaceful & romantic break, and that is exactly what we got.”
We were greeted by a very warm welcome by Mrs Fenton, shown around a very cosy and beautiful little cottage. The owners had thought of everything we could have possibly needed for our stay. The chocolate biscuits were a very nice touch after a long drive. Lots of walks and sights make a beautiful location to stay. The pub just up the road was perfect. We would definitely come back and will certainly recommend to friends and family. Thank you for a wonderful break.
- Allan & July, Jan & Brian from Australia “We vey much enjoyed our time at Neathwood Cottage.”
The cottage itself is first rate with many little extras supplied by the owners. The cottage stands in a very pleasant garden and the surrounding area is both beautiful and peaceful.
- Jan & Brian from Australia, The property
Standing in an idyllic, secluded Cotswold garden, Neathwood is a pretty, period semi-detached cottage dating from the 17th century.
The garden is a riot of colour in the spring and summer with a lovely display of attractive plants and shrubs, plus there are stunning views over the surrounding countryside - a wonderful spot to relax in at the end of a busy day.
Inside it's been nicely renovated with comfy furnishings and offers a cosy retreat for a couple.
